Symbiotic Relationship
Any close relationship between different species?
What is symbiosis?
Anything that can limit the size of a population, including living and nonliving features of an ecosystem.
What is limiting factors?
Study of the interactions among organisms and their environment.
What is ecology
All food chains start with this type of energy?
What is radiant energy?
What is the sun?
This organism hunts and kills another animal for food.
What is a predator.
What is a consumer.
The relationship between bees and flowers.
What is mutualism?
Can a hunter who hunts more than his fair share be a limiting factor? Why?
Yes, because he can through off the balance between the species he is over hunting in his natural environment.
Large geographic areas with similar climates and ecosystems make us these. Examples are snowy tundra, the desert, or the very diverse tropical rainforest.
What are biomes?
All energy transfer starts with the bottom of the energy pyramid, food chain and food web. (What is at the bottom of each?)
What are producers?
This organism is hunted and caught for food.
What is the prey?
What is a consumer?
Types of relationships between organisms among different species?
What is mutualism, commensalism, and parasitism?
Can a drought be a limiting factor? Why?
Yes, a drought can be a limiting factor because it will slow down the growth of producers and have less clean water available to organisms.
All the living and non-living features of an environment.
What is an ecosystem?
A complex diagram that shows the network of many interconnected food chains.
What is a food web?
This organism eats both producers and consumers.
What is an omnivore?
The relationship between a dog and a flea?
What is parasitism?
Is it true that an ecosystem can only support a certain number of individuals before the systems begins to run of of resources?
yes, it's called overpopulation
Air, water, soil, sunlight, and rocks make up these types of factors in an ecosystem.
What are abiotic factors?
This shows how food energy passes from one organism to the next.
What is a food chain?
This organism only eats meat.
What is a carnivore?
The relationship between a shark and a remora.
What is commensalism?
The largest number of individuals of a particular species that an ecosystem can support over time?
What is carrying capacity?
Trees, plants, animals, insects, bacteria and humans make up these types of factors in an ecosystem.
What are biotic factors?
The transfer of energy from one organism to another can be depicted with this type of pyramid.
What is an energy pyramid?
This organism only eats producers.
What is an herbivore?
